Welcome to opalholicsanonymous.com where opal season lasts forever.

I may not be Jewish, but this does not look kosher to me and it will be interesting to see what happens with this boondoggle. From Roskin Gem News report, use the link at the bottom to access the article and then the sub-link to more of Bergman's article on the Ophir collection. Looks like a scam to...

This is from AGTA so it can't be reposted here and I'm only giving you the headline, the lead sentence and paragraph so you'll know the dates and times of the show, and the photo they used to represent the opal sellers. This lists every gemstone in alphabetical order and tells you where their booths...

First up is JCK's Jewelry Agenda for this week, and although I'm delighted they chose an emerald ring for the lead pic while it's still May, I don't care for it; but there's a great pocket watch in the last pic from 1883, so check out their agenda for this week. :) JCK Jewelry Agenda: Week of May 19...

Yeah, I know what you mean. I sit here waiting and waiting for this computer to do what I tell it to, and eventually roll my eyes and say oh good, I get to hurry up and wait, and for that laughter is the only remedy to keep me using this relic. :lol: This was a joyous week with not only the ones fro...

Here's another one from Jason at Black Opal Direct, and this fossilized shell is quite spectacular before he even dives into it. I have a fossilized shell I bought from our member mick who's a miner in Oz many years ago, but it only has a bit of color so there's no comparison with this. This one is ...

I'm loving this adorable piece, and quite frankly if I thought I could handle it I'd love to have a ring-tail lemur for a pet. Unfortunately for me that won't happen any more than me acquiring this brooch will happen since, even if I could afford it, it already sold at auction. :lol: Piece of the We...

Even though sales fell over the course of the year, Watches of Switzerland's sales here in the U.S. remained strong, and they recently acquired Roberto Coin so things should get even better for them this year. Here's how things went for WOS, and what the future may hold for them if they play their c...

These are precarious times for De Beers who appears to have arrived at a precipice that could throw it off in either direction; continued longevity and success, or it could signal the end for De Beers, which would be tragic for the trade if they lose such a big name. Here's what Rob Bates is reporti...

Either my eyes are deceiving me or there are no hearts in this article on 'heart pieces' in vintage jewels. The least they could have done is shown us some such jewels, but not that I can see so if you find any in these pics please point them out to me. :roll: Adriana Carrig Makes Heart Pieces a Tre...

Uhh, no, and I would hardly call these 'remarkable'. :roll: In my world only kids' jewelry might be made out of carbon fiber, not fine jewels, and these might as well have been made from old tires if you ask me. If you feel the same, at the end of the article they tell you where their booth will be ...
